Art and History of this Hermès Scarf

With " Flying Silks," Loïc Dubigeon weaves a connection between Chinese tradition and the art of movement. Each kite depicted evokes lightness, freedom, and the legacy of a millennia-old craft. By making silk fly, the artist celebrates travel, cultural transmission, and the poetry of the sky. But behind their poetic grace lies a fascinating story: the first Chinese kites, created more than 2,500 years ago, were used for military purposes. It was Marco Polo who brought them back to Europe in 1282, captivated by their beauty and symbolism. Thanks to the Silk Road, these aerial objects conquered the world, blending history, exoticism, and dreams of faraway places—all that this square embodies.
